>> i think you have to step back for a second, erin. this is hardly a news flash. father donald cousins wrote about this 20 years ago. father andrew greeley coined the phrase lavender mafia talking about a subculture within the catholic church. but barbie was quite right. this is focusing the electorate's attention on the mismanagement of the courier, the roman bureaucracy in the vatican, and no doubt, whether they're looking for a conservative or a liberal, i think that's beside the point. they're looking for a reformer. somebody who will come in and honestly appraise what's happened here. the many gaffes that were allowed under benedict's reign, and hopefully clear some of this up. >> scotland's bishop has resigned over allegations he abused four men. he said i'm not going to join them for the conclave in person. i do not wish media attention to be focused on me. but the vatican's own spokesman won't comment on whether he'll participate in the conclave or not. how can this be? >> they're good at spinning the story in the way they want to spin it. today, we heard

i first want to go to erin mcpike, in kansas city. erin, how are things looking out there? >> reporter: actually, brooke, the storm has stopped and the roads are actually clear. and i want to show you this. we're actually at the time where we can see lovely sludge, yuck. so that -- that means it is time for the cleanup to start and kansas city's mayor estimates with last week's snowstorm cost the city about $2 million. they think that this week's snowstorm will cost just a little bit more because it is heavier snow, and that means more trees have come down. but by and large, brooke, people we have talked to here are actually very happy about this snowstorm because this is really dry, this area here. it is the third consecutive year of a drought. and this snowstorm has brought much needed moisture, brooke. >> okay, so we have some sludge and moisture in kansas city. thank you, erin. ted rowlands, to you in chicago. never fun. cancellations, flights at o'hare. tell me, give it to me straight, what is the current situation? >> reporter: 230 flights, that's straight up, brooke.

erin mcpike is in wichita where it's still coming down very hard there, isn't it, erin. >> reporter: yes, it sure is. right behind me we just saw a snow plow go by for the third time in the past hour but the road is already covered again. we also have a handy ruler to check throughout the day. it's 4 inches now and two hours ago there was nothing. so it is about 2 inches an hour and we'll see a lot more throughout the day. 9 inches at least, maybe up to 18. it's going to be a little higher in topeka where they're expecting 17 or 18 inches. as you mentioned, the governor, sam brownback, has shut down most of the state today. he's saying if you want to play in the snow, basically go nuts, but stay off the roads because the roads are pretty bad here. now, we have heard that farmers are welcoming this storm because it's been a drought for a couple of years here, so, you know, we want to see some heavy snow to help ease those drought conditions. >> and that is the silver lining if there is one, erin mcpike, you're absolutely right. you can play, get out of school today. this storm system
